Plans are underway to begin transitioning some employees back to work on the campuses and to offer more student services and in-person classes for the fall semester. Health and safety considerations always take top priority, and we are remaining flexible based on the public health conditions at the time. The plans were reviewed at Friday’s DEC Emergency Response Planning Group meeting.
Some key groups of employees will begin returning to work at the campuses this spring. The decision on which employees will return is based on business necessity and the ability to provide a safe working environment. Timelines are being developed for employee return based upon business need and the ability to ensure workspaces are safe.
The repopulation teams for Employee Relations, Facilities, Student Services and Instruction have finalized their recommendations for a return to campus, which was also reviewed at the DEC Emergency Response Planning Group meeting. (See the
March 26 Chancellor’s Letter for a full list of recommendations.)
While always keeping public health conditions a top priority, the goal is to have a full range of classes and student services offered on the campuses by January 4, 2022.
